A strong safety net for our community

When families face problems like these, we’re the safety net they can depend on to keep food on the table. We’re working with other hunger relief partners to find new solutions to keep the safety net strong year after year. Together last year we served 523,000 people and helped provide them with 81 million meals.

Stabilizing hungry families

What is the impact of having enough food? Food stability means being able to live fully as a productive parent, employee or student, being able to focus on your quality of life without worrying about how to feed yourself or your family.

Strengthening the hunger relief system

Second Harvest Heartland works with 1,000 partnering food shelves, food pantries and other meal programs. We create new partnerships with schools, hospitals and clinics to broaden and deepen our reach across our service area.
